Create rows based on date values

Trying to create a report from a CRM system to project coming revenue. Unfortunately the build in reporting is not made for subscription services. For each sales case we get one row with expected start date, number of months the project runs and monthly revenue;

deal_nameexpected_start_datemonthly_valuemonths
Client 12021-09-0110 0003
Client 22021-11-0113 0004

 

We are only interested in the month the projects runs so we can assume expected start date is always the first day of the month

I would like to end up with a table like this:

deal_namedatemonthly_value
Client 12021-09-0110 000
Client 12021-10-0110 000
Client 12021-11-0110 000
Client 22021-11-0113 000
Client 22021-12-0113 000
Client 22022-01-0113 000
Client 22022-02-0113 000

 

I´m a bit of a newbie to PowerBi so apprechiate all the help I can get. Thanks!

    you can create two columns

    Column = 
    VAR _date=maxx(FILTER('Table','Table'[expected_start_date]<='Table (2)'[date]),'Table'[expected_start_date])
    return maxx(FILTER('Table','Table'[expected_start_date]=_date),'Table'[deal_name])
    
    Column2 = 
    VAR _date=maxx(FILTER('Table','Table'[expected_start_date]<='Table (2)'[date]),'Table'[expected_start_date])
    return maxx(FILTER('Table','Table'[expected_start_date]=_date),'Table'[monthly_value])

    pls see the attachment below.

    I am curious why 11/1 is not client 2 and 13000?
